12:22 am

GreyWoulf

in Meet & Greet -- topic is Thank You for all your Love and Support -- Why not just Pics of Sebastian you may ask....
I posted while under the stress of bringing him home, so I wasn't thinking clearly :D

12:24 am

just keep at it, billie and watch for our clues ( don't usually give many this early on though)

GW, your daughter is going to break some hearts I think, she's just gorgeous.

12:28 am

GreyWoulf

spatial -- he is great, trying to fall asleep on my chest as we chat :) Mom is healing, but not 100% yet

Debs -- will pass it on when he is more awake, thanks :)

12:29 am

spatialbean

Rest mom rest! As much as you can with two little ones...

12:30 am

GreyWoulf

spatial -- Kristianna is living every minute of being a big sister -- she is also turning into a wonderful little helper --- she tends to insert herself into whatever task I am doing without even being asked :)

12:32 am

spatialbean

Oh cuuuuuute! Good girl, helpin' mom and dad.

12:32 am

Munner

Wonderful photos, GreyWoulf. I am especially charmed by the one of Kristianna and her baby brother. I'm only awake and playing so early because I got a phone call an hour ago from my youngest son to let me know he and his wife were on their way to the hospital for the birth of their first baby.

12:32 am

spatialbean

Wow Munner!

12:33 am

GreyWoulf

And as far as Kristianna breaking hearts -- Just when I thought she was as adorable as she could possibly get, I saw her with her brother and her cuteness factor jumped by at least two orders of magnitude!

(slapping myself with a fish)

3:03 am

The 7/40 is same beginning, different ending.

3:04 am

mrpresident

thanks broll... didn't see that...
the 5/14 is still out of sight

3:04 am

broll

li 5/14 rhymes with a striped cat

3:05 am

mrpresident

oh... that cat!! Thx again!

3:10 am

broll

There are some stupidhead c words also. 2 of them are non-paper money with extra letter(s) thrown in. Another you can figure out by the point total.

3:12 am

Good morning everyone. Up early because have a cold and couldn't breath. And the cat keeps wanting to sit on my chest. My neighbor had turducken at his party last night. Bizarre concept,and looked a bit like road kill (big , flat, boneless bird).

wow-that was confusing! But I'm very proud of having navigated the stream and gotten the co6. Thanks everyone!

5:27 am

trishtrash

probably too late to be useful... but just in case...

cr7 - game played with a mallet
co6 - take out the 'r' for someone who flirts
ro6 - take the 'c' off the cr7, for a move in the game
ro5 - remove the last letter, for a variation of the game

5:27 am

Jacula

Just started, but I like it so far.

im stuck on 23 words cant see no more

8:42 am

Michaela, for me it sometimes helps to give the grid a rest, go do something else and then to come back. I usually see a lot of new words then. Good luck hunting :)

8:45 am

I was just about to ask for help with my last word, (the CR7), when I scrolled back and saw your clue trishtrash. Thanks a million, I had spent more time than I needed to on that one.
I wasn't going to play today, but as it was a small one......

8:52 am

Thanks FMitch, I had the 6 and 7, never saw the 8 :)

Me too, FMitch... Thanks!

8:54 am

It is, isn't it? I wasn't home this morning, I delivered a festive breakfast to a friend who is having her birthday today. She lives on the other side of our country, so I went yesterday evening, stayed with her sister and surprised her this morning. Just came home.

8:54 am

smithchick

Any one try to go off on a tangent?

8:55 am

smithchick

That sounds really sweet, sprite. Was she pleasantly surprised?

8:57 am

FMitch

Oh my! for the first time ever I have finished the grid before you Sprite!!!!! Sounds like yr friend would have had a great greeting. BTW have many happy memories of NL, visted loads of times business and hols.

8:57 am

Congrats, FMitch!!!

EvaNadine

thanks guys -- i cant see for looking...heh...
so very monday!

9:08 am

smithchick

It is definitely a Monday. My son (13) brought home "Baby Think It Over" from school this weekend. My youngest is eight so it's been a while since I had to be kept up by a crying baby. This one wasn't like any baby I ever raised, either.

9:09 am

FMitch

"Baby think it over" is that like a real pretend baby?

9:11 am

sprite

Oh yes, she was very happy with my visit and the breakfast :D Felt great to do this for her. She's had a tough year and friends really do help.
LOL @ FMitch... congrats!

9:13 am

FMitch

Sprite am so glad. I would love to have a friend like you in the same country - you are someone very special, but I think we all know that already.

9:13 am

smithchick

Yes. She even came with her own little car seat. She cries when she needs a diaper change, a bottle, or to be burped. She also cries if you don't support her head well enough, she is handled roughly, or she just wants to be left alone. It is up to the poor 12/13 yr. old to determine which. It is up to the poor parent (the real one, that is) to wake up the poor 12/13 yr. old so he/she can make that determination and proceed accordingly. I hate faux baby.

9:14 am

smithchick

Give me a real baby any day.

9:14 am

sprite

We would have fun together, FMitch! I would like that too :)

9:15 am

Angelsong

I've been lurking, and now I'm finished!

9:15 am

Hahahaha... sure, lurking helps, less distraction from the hunt! Well done and congrats :)

9:16 am

Well, WTG Angel!!!!

9:16 am

EvaNadine

so, ive managed to find myself mostly *clueless* as to what to get the MF vor VDay

9:16 am

DarleenMB

smithchick ... better a faux baby than the real thing ??

9:18 am

sprite

I second that, Darleen! Better even: none of the above. I like my kids better every year :)

9:20 am

smithchick

Well, with a real baby, you actually get some feedback, and there is the payoff of actual affection, cooing, smiling, etc. This faux baby had a very wimpy neck, too. If my real babies had necks like that they would never have survived siblings or daddy.

9:22 am

DarleenMB

well, smithchick the faux baby isn't there to make you WANT one, is it? ;-)

9:22 am

sprite

Nope, it's more like a scarecrow :)

9:23 am

smithchick

That is true, darlene and it definitely served its purpose with my son. I'm just really glad the weekend is over.

9:23 am

DarleenMB

LOL, well there ya go! Best birth control on the planet.

9:24 am

I do think it is an interesting project. Don't know if that's been done in Holland yet.

9:24 am

Greetings.

9:24 am

Jen

When my son was about 1, we took a 3 hour plane ride (just the 2 of us) and there was a high school group on board... son got very cranky toward the end... now THAT was a good birth control lesson for them!

9:24 am

sprite

Hi harpjane :)

9:26 am

sprite

LMAO Jen!
I can see that picture very clearly :) :)

9:28 am

sprite

I want to make that Cr7 into a 9, but it is not valid. Does it need a double consonant there? Probably :(

9:28 am

harpjane

Woooaaah! I only have 3 words after ten minutes. Is this a hard one, or do I just need more coffee.

9:28 am

smithchick

It is a good project. It was also good for a few laughs. My son was not a natural (his 11 yr. old sister is).

9:28 am

FMitch

there is a "child doll" that really reacts like the real thing. and there are computer chips etc inside so it records everything. Has been used to quite an effect here in UK for teenage pregnancy or thoughts of!!!!

9:30 am

sprite

Probably both, harpjane ;)
I can imagine how well this project works. If our school isn't doing it yet, I might propose it to them... or get my kids such a doll and MAKE it a project. In a few years.

9:30 am

smithchick

How old? That's what this was. It records how long the baby cries and what the "parent" does to console it, how long it took to respond, if the response was correct, etc.

9:32 am

FMitch

smith - it's a new born in the main as that really proves the point.

9:32 am

lds

why not retangle - it happens every time I water the lawn!

9:35 am

smithchick

Yep, same thing. There are sleepless parents and 7th graders all over my town this weekend.:)

9:37 am

Can someone help me on the ge6? Just not seeing it.

Hi, adsman. Thanks for the ge6 clue, evandine. I was missing it too.

9:40 am

Hi adsman. Yes, it is a toughie.

9:40 am

smithchick

I have two ge's, three gi's and two gl's. Can someone tell me what I'm missing?

smithchick, I read about your "baby" experience this weekend. My daughter did this several years ago. The dolls are certainly not as fun as a real baby. My daughter sleeps in the basement, so she had to get herself up with the doll. I slept all night.

9:52 am

smithchick

YW.

9:53 am

smithchick

Unfortunately, my house is tiny. My son didn't wake up, but I did. I had to go in and roust him out of bed all night.

9:55 am

doxy1lover

I am so sorry for your lack of sleep. Take a nap today while he is at school.

9:55 am

smithchick

I'm trying really hard not to use bj's list, but there aren't a whole lot of clues and I don't know what to ask for. Ack...

doing well. Unfortunately, mom and baby have to move home with me and hubby. Daughter is going through some rough times for a while.

10:29 am

smaller

hi smithchick!!! where's your dress! gasp! you're naked!

evanadine-got that one, what's the other?

10:30 am

smithchick

Smaller, en5- growing outward or inherited from the mother's side.

10:30 am

dl88

yes anj it was a great defensive battle and the offenses were both a bit quiet, the big issue around here is the referees made too much of an impact on the game

10:31 am

smithchick

Naked is good. As long as there are absolutely no eyes upon me whatsoever, including my own. I'm not clever enough to get dressed. I keep meaning to ask my techno-genius hubby to help my find suitable attire for babble, but I forget.

10:31 am

smaller

doxy,
i'm so sorry for the rough times. but at least you'll get to spend some quality time and help out. that first few months as a new mom is tough

Thanks, doxy. I tried monkey-typing that all different ways and couldn't come up with it.

10:45 am

doxy1lover

yw, and ty for the re clue.

10:46 am

ch1212

I know, smaller -- that's why I let Barbie do the posing. Even though I was one of those moms that refused to let my daughter have one. In cases like this, she has her uses.

10:46 am

smithchick

After your second re4/4 there is a vowel that turns it into re5/10.

10:47 am

smithchick

Also, there is a second re5/10 at the very end.

10:47 am

EvaNadine

i have that one already

One more R, one more A. Can't believe they are really in this grid.

Darn... found the A. I have always known I have a problem with getting mad :)

Hi Doxy - read your earlier posting - I bet your daughter isreally glad you can be there for her- we may be in a similar position ourselves in the future - only for my son. It's hard work but worth every minute & I think proves that you don't ever stop being or needing a mum. My grandmother used to cross my mother over the road when my mum was in her late 50's !

10:53 am

doxy, if I knew that, I wouldn't be missing it, LOL!
I'll keep looking for a little while longer. If I can't stand it anymore, I will beg for your assistance :D

Yay!!! Congrats, evanadine!!!

11:14 am

EvaNadine

neither of them!

i was telling people on friday that my main disappointment was that they played SO MUCH new stuff...its ok, but its not the reason i went to the show!

then, when they did play older stuff, most of it was acoustic and fairly energy-less

11:14 am

hurshy

argh, hard puzzle AND i keep losing my internet connection!

11:15 am

doxy1lover

hurshy, wave that wand you are holding. Maybe that will help a little.

11:16 am

lola100

Aww, that's disappointing. I only like their earlier stuff, thought they went a bit 'pop' after New Jersey.

11:16 am

ch1212

Atalante, love your dress! It looks like a purple version of the one my daughter is getting married in, next June. Hurshy's dress is PRICELESS! She was always my favorite character in Oz.

11:17 am

Hi bunny,Hubby ok (thank God) Hospital did micro surgery on nerves in finger (he had sawn through them and tendons) Home now in heavy plaster and sling

Bye, all. I believe I'll try to recover some of my lost sleep from the weekend from Hades.

their encores, however, were really great -- acoustic versions of "livin on a prayer" and "wanted dead or alive"

so, if anyone here was thinking of renting "the brothers grimm", let me save you a few dollars...dont bother!

11:47 am

ch1212

no, caitlyn, just working on my last two... any clues for the re5/14 that follows the 2 re6/24s, and the re7/28?

11:47 am

bunnyvicious

I agree Eva, I was really looking forward to it. The kids didn't even like it!

11:48 am

rolin

no caitlin im here too

11:48 am

EvaNadine

i thought the actors did an ok job, but the plot was flimsy, the writing was terrible, and the cinematography was so confusing...

11:49 am

ch1212

Thx evanadine -- we were thinking of renting Grimm, but I'll take your word for it. We did rent 'Bewitched' the other night -- so-so. Kidman looks so much like Elizabeth Montgomery, but her voice was WAY wrong.

11:50 am

ch1212

And Ferrell was fine in Elf, but miscast as Darrin, even a Darrin wannabe.

11:50 am

caitlyn

Great..im not very good at giving clues but here go's re5/14 first 3 letters as above +cons+vowel

11:51 am

bunnyvicious

I did like the way they stuck all the little fairy tales in there, and really like those two actors, but you're right. It had alot of potential. Won't hurt Heath Ledger though, he went on to be a gay cowboy and rake in the awards!

11:51 am

rolin

ch1212..were you brought up on the liz mongomery version?

11:52 am

EvaNadine

havent seen bewitched yet...will farrell just makes my skin crawl for some reason...

BF and i had been checking the video store for WEEKS for the brothers grimm + it was always all rented out. i was highly disappointed because i wanted it to be so good!

11:53 am

bunnyvicious

Don't like him either, or Ben Stiller for that matter. Can't stand to watch a movie with them in it. We got Transporter 2 the other day, it was pretty good if you like watching things blow up and get maimed.

11:53 am

ch1212

caitlyn, your clue was PERFECT. Thanks! Now i just need that re7/28. Rolin, indeed I was -- loved it. Wished I could wiggle my nose too, and tried as a kid. Bunny, we went to see Brokeback Mountain, and I do have to give credit -- amazing acting, cinematography, and really a great love story. I have lots of real cowboys in my family though, and they refuse to even give it a look-see.

11:54 am

EvaNadine

ben stiller is ok, though id like to see him do some less slapstick stuff...i think he could be a decent actor...

we saw transporter 2 (though i never saw the 1st one!) and i agree...kinda mindless plot, but lotsa stuff go BOOM!

11:54 am

rolin

when i was a kid...it was 'new'..lol..and i can wiggle my nose like her...boy was I popular at school..

11:55 am

ch1212

My brother rides for an outfit that cattle wrangles, and he even refuses to wear a red neckscarf -- personally, I think he's a bit insecure :)

11:55 am

ch1212

oooh, rolin, I'm jealous. I even used to slap my arms like Barbara Eden in I Dream of Jeanie!

11:56 am

bunnyvicious

I haven't seen it yet, the husband won't go, imagine that! He said there is just no way they could have gotten away with it back then. He asked if I've ever seen two cowboys holding hands at the stock yards or the bar... I really want to see it though.

11:56 am

caitlyn

ch1212 re 7/28 ..more than your re4/4

11:56 am

ch1212

Bunny, the movie starts in 1963 and comes forward to modern day. I was surprised about that.

11:56 am

rolin

lol...me too ch1212... what do the kids today do??.. shake there bootiliciouses like byoncee??..lol

11:57 am

caitlyn, THANKS!! Done! Anyone want a clue before I go?

I'm looking forward to pirate's of the Carribean 2, but they could put Johny Depp just sitting in a chair for three hours and I'd do watch it...

ch1212

Haven't read the book yet, rolin --- but every time I watch the movie, I just cry and cry. The actress not only looks like my mom did, but we were wandering-gypsy types too. 18 schools in 12 years. I really related to the little girl.

12:03 pm

rolin

well i tell ya what...treat yourself to the book...i loved it soooooo much...i used to ration myself a chapter a night...i treated it like a box of really rich chocolates..and it it...youll love it...sooooo much better than the film

What a wonderful analogy for the book, rolin! I will definitely pick up a copy. Thanks!

Caitlyn - You may have already figured this out, but when my hubby severed one tendon in his right hand, he found that sweatpants were in order. He couldn't work a zipper with one hand.

12:35 pm

caitlyn

gwenski I do it for him !!!!!!!!!!!!

12:35 pm

gwenski

Just a suggestion...

12:35 pm

harpjane

whoa, you guys! Too much information!

12:36 pm

harpjane

R 7 clues, anyone? I don't have a single one.

12:36 pm

EvaNadine

harp -- i just posted them all below!

12:36 pm

bunnyvicious

re 6/24's?

12:37 pm

harpjane

So I see. Thanks!

12:37 pm

macuser

12:37 pm

EvaNadine

welcome.
:)

12:38 pm

Mishele507

i just signed in- is there any Q?

12:39 pm

macuser

bunny
re6/24 is re + gi4/6

12:39 pm

Mishele507

i am at work and none of my game sites but this one works and i cant get to babblers anonymous either ACK

12:39 pm

bunnyvicious

Eva, since you can't refresh, do you type in the address in the browser instead of coming in through a favorite place mark? You might get newer images then?

12:40 pm

harpjane

Thank you and pass the fish! I know better than to give up on the re's until I've got all the other words!

12:40 pm

bunnyvicious

sorry mac, still missing that g as well

12:40 pm

cybernan

li 6?

12:41 pm

EvaNadine

doesnt seem to matter which way i get here...
it used to refresh automatically, and one day it just kinda decided not to...

then it used to work if i cleaned out my cache, but really, doing that everyday? not worth it...heh

12:41 pm

gwenski

Michele - No words start with the q, but several (4?) use it.

12:41 pm

macuser

bunny
the gi4/6 is the opposite of innocent minus the 'u'

12:41 pm

Mishele507

cool ty

12:42 pm

EvaNadine

cyber -- Li6 starts with the Li4 before it, then add a consonant and a vowel..."ANY" consonant and vowel.
;)

12:42 pm

bunnyvicious

ok, got the g and 1 re 6/24
thx again

12:42 pm

gwenski

li6 sounds like what teachers want student to do. Definition is "A subordinate rib used in Gothic vaulting to connect the intersections and bosses of the primary ribs".

(I'm just here lurking while I eat lunch.)

12:43 pm

cybernan

Ty -- thought I'd tried that!

12:44 pm

macuser

bunny
the other re6/24 starts with the same 3 letters as the other one but ends with another word for allow

12:45 pm

bunnyvicious

ty, ty mac...I usually monkey type more before I ask for clues.

12:46 pm

macuser

You're welcome bunny - sometimes the monkey needs to rest ;)

12:52 pm

EvaNadine

*smacks own hand*

just went and bought myself a snickers bar!

12:53 pm

smaller

thanks macuser!

12:53 pm

gwenski

Smacking of hands is only required if you actually EAT the candy!

12:53 pm

bunnyvicious

Eva, you look skinny enough not to have to worry about it! :)

12:54 pm

EvaNadine

well, whats the point of HAVING it if i dont EAT it??

12:54 pm

gwenski

Umm, to share with others? Like us??

12:54 pm

bunnyvicious

You could attatch it to you r head like the commercial, or maybe a bowtie...

12:54 pm

EvaNadine

heh, those icon pictures squish me right down to the size i *WISH* i were!

but hey, at least i exercised enough self-restraint to just get the regular + not the king-size!

12:55 pm

smaller

candy? did i hear someone say candy?

12:56 pm

gwenski

OH -- you 'exercised'! Then candy is definitely allowable!

12:56 pm

Harpjane...
you should be easy to spot with the harp. please carry it around all the time.

;)

1:10 pm

Anj

Hmm...looks like i'm missing out on the fun... : /

Hi SFNeil : )

6/18

2:30 pm

davidgeman

Hey guys im new to this.what ARE you saying??
Whats 4/4 orfr/6??

2:31 pm

smaller

david,
first two letters of the word "fr"
then number of letters in the word 6
then point value of the word 36
fr6/36

2:32 pm

smaller

david,
so the 4/4 that you listed should have 2 letters in front.
like an4/4

2:33 pm

smaller

does that help?

2:33 pm

davidgeman

Gottcha I think. fr/6 would be fright??
Im at 37 words in about 5 mins is that par?=580pts

2:35 pm

Hazzardous

Hi davidgeman
Welcome!
This is a very friendly group that chats and exchanges clues. ta4/4 means "a 4-letter word that starts with ta and scores 4 points". In addition to these stats, chatters exchange clues in the form of definitions, cryptics, riddles, etc. - anything except posting the actual word!

Good luck and have fun!

2:35 pm

smaller

david,
yes on the fr6. but PLEASE don't post words
major no-no.
point figuring is listed in "babble rules" on the top header of the page
you just multiply

2:36 pm

smaller

david,
don't worry, it's not timed. time is not a factor in the points

2:37 pm

davidgeman

Right im in the groove now, thanks guys I will learn(slowly). Where you all from (can I ask)? Im in mid england & its cold

2:39 pm

I watched the half time show (I think Mick needs to retire) and the last half.... was a good game!

No no races - I'm still trying to get well - turns out I have walking pneumonia....... sheesh.....

2:45 pm

Cadfan - then stand still and maybe it will go away!!!! LOL.... only kidding. That is no fun - hope you feel better soon!!! :)

2:45 pm

smaller

CadFan,
if you ran, maybe you'd outrun it. since it's "walking"

2:45 pm

boreetos

the thing is I dont even really watch football, but because the home team was in the Superbowl, I cared more than usual, and I jsut hate to see something unfair happen to anyone. There were Steelers fans saying last night that they didn't want the steelers to win like that either. So, really, its just something that they'll have to overcome next year.

2:46 pm

boreetos

Mick definatly needs to get off the stage. He's just sort of sad.

2:46 pm

Hazzardous

billie - an 5/10 means "to annoint". Which an 5/14 do you need - there are 3 of them?

2:46 pm

CadFan

LOL - I keep trying to run - I figure either I'll feel better or die trying! Have been considering signing up for a local 1/2 which is in April.. we'll see. It's a tough one with some very, very difficult hills.

2:47 pm

mamabear

I agree Boreetos - I personally think sports are highly overrated and hyped. But you are right. I think it was exciting that it was the Seahawks first visit to the SB!!! That's exciting in itself!

2:47 pm

davidgeman

Gotta go guys. thanks for the aid. gnight(it is here)

2:47 pm

CadFan

I has to root for the Steelers. Two of the players are graduates of the school I work at - and we are HUGE fans of all the teams here. (Colorado State University)

G'nite david!

nite David come again

2:48 pm

Did you get the te 6/18?
It's te + the last re4
Sorry if I'm redundant :)

2:48 pm

mamabear

I was "impressed" with the energy he still has at his age, running around and shaking that little butt of his - not a bad bod for his age, but was not impressed with the music - instrumental OR vocal. Maybe it was the equipment they had - that might have been part of it...

2:49 pm

nite david!

2:49 pm

mamabear

How rude of me... we have a new guest and I did not welcome him???? I'm sorry - welcome to Babbleonia, Davidgeman!!!!! Once you enter, there's no turning back....... *evil giggle*

2:49 pm

mamabear

g'nite chet.
(couldn't resist)

2:50 pm

boreetos

you're right MB, they are way too hyped and commericilized. But, at the same time, sports bring people together in a way that no other experiences can. It gives children idols and gives towns something to cheer for, but what happens when those Idols are taking steroids and in it for the money and fame. And when those towns cheer for a game won through unfair means. That's not what sports are supposed to be about.

2:51 pm

boreetos

no worries CadFan. I can't argue with anybody rooting for anyone. I have my bias because of where I live.

Mb, yeah, the vocals particularly were terrible. I couldn't hardly hear Mick most of the time.

2:52 pm

CadFan

I'm off for a bit. Going to play scrabble on line with my sister.

2:52 pm

mamabear

I totally agree, boreetos. It is fine for the sport of it, commaraderie, and all that. But then human nature steps in and there ya have it. I also think too much money is devoted to it. I don't think someone who can swing a bat or kick a ball is more important to society than a teacher who molds young minds, but makes a small fraction of the salary.

2:53 pm

hulagirl

how many words are there in this one?
I'm only up to 48 words....lol

2:53 pm

boreetos

Exactly, unfortunatly, I don't think Nike is going to endorse Mrs. Thompson's First Grade class for a three year, 20 million dollar contract.

2:53 pm

There's 108, hulagirl. Of which, I have 108 to find!!! LOL

Right! The world as it exists.... whether we like it or not!

its true, its hard to find somewhere honest to look for answers when there is greed and corruption in all facets of life.

well, I gotta get back to work. thanks for the philosophy talk. Some days its hard to not get dissappointed in the world. But then again, the mountains and sunrise looked absolutely amazing this morning on my way to work. Couldn't help but smile.
So, its a trade off I guess. See you kids a little later.

The biggest 'fi' is fi7/52. What Rocky was. Or you could say, 'I'm a lover, not a fi*****'.

Suel - I mean to say 'Revised Eating Plan', not 'diet'. LOL.

8:43 pm

SueL

Jacula Maybe if I called it that it might work.

8:44 pm

hulagirl

ty...those were pretty easy I feel a bit silly not getting those

8:44 pm

Jacula

Suel - if you really want to diet, don't fret about not starting on New Year's Day. Start when you know you have the resolve to carry it through.

8:46 pm

Eva

3 left to go!

th5/18 and the re4/7 & 5/14 between the length of a monarch's rule and to let up.

8:46 pm

Jacula

Suel - 'diet' is a very bad word because a) it leads your mind and your body to think, 'EEK! I'm being starved!' and therefore lay down anything it receives in its fat cells.
b) Because you cannot 'diet' for the rest of your life. You must revise your eating instead.

8:46 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Jac: You are absolutely right as far as dieting.

Suel: Just eat what you normally do, just less of it. Then cut out sweets, potatoes and all breads. It does come off. Slowly, not like the other fast diets, but you keep it off.

8:47 pm

SueL

Jacula Thanks, You are right about that. Well, I really have to go now . Good night.

8:47 pm

Jacula

'Bye Suel.

8:48 pm

SueL

Jo Jo Thanks too

8:49 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Suel: YW

8:49 pm

Jacula

Suel - reintroduce the carbs from potatoes and breads slowly. You don't have to go without them for life! You'll find your appetite for them is less once you've got used to it.

8:49 pm

Tim

1 more word..Ist re6/18???....please...(-8

8:50 pm

Jacula

Eva - th5/18 - the fleshy part of your leg above your knee.

8:50 pm

boatierra

Your diet is whatever you eat, at anytime in your life.

To go on a 'diet' (using diet as a verb) is to: To eat and drink according to a regulated system, especially so as to lose weight or control a medical condition.

Just be sure to not let diet become a 4 letter word. And you are what you eat. Currently, I am a Naked Juice Superfood smoothie and celery sticks dipped in sunflower seed butter. But most evenings, I'm a pint of Ben and Jerry's.

8:51 pm

Jacula

Tim - re6/18 - to give in after cajolement. Or what happened to a library book after you renewed it - it was re****.

8:52 pm

Jacula

Boatierra - Spot on re the di4 word!

8:52 pm

Eva

Thanks Jacula-this is really getting embarassing! How could I have missed that?!

Only 2 left, and the meds are beginning to take effect, so I'd love to get them done.

8:52 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Suel: Jac is right. I include some breads and potatoes now in my diet now. It has been years since I lost 75 lbs., and haven't gained it back. But, one thing I always did, was weigh everyday. I know, I know, experts say not to do that, but I did and still do. If I am up a pound, I cut something out. Cut something out, if you are pound up, better than waiting til it is out of control.

8:56 pm

Jacula

Jojo - I know it's tempting to weigh every day, but I must disagree with you on that one. You know, without weighing, if you've overdone things on one day or not. Best to put the scales away and weigh yourself once a week, at same time of day, before eating and before dressing.

8:56 pm

kole

ummmmm, can any of y'all give me a nint on an 5/10?

8:56 pm

moorheit

Can I get help for the other re6/24? I have the one that means to cover in gold again.

8:56 pm

Eva

re4/7 & the re5/14 right after it?

8:56 pm

Jacula

Eva - I'd love to help but I'm having trouble figuring out what you need from what you said.

8:57 pm

Jacula

re4/7 - a robbery. re+ Rudyard Kipling's famous poem.

8:58 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Jac: Always w/o dressing. I always take my rings and watch off when I weigh, I am in the buff. I would take my glasses off too, except I couldn't see the scale. HA!Each their own whether to weigh every day or not. It worked for me to weigh everyday, but maybe not for others. Everyone, each their own.

8:58 pm

Jacula

re5/14 after that word is what a monarch does. I sang the UK National Anthem earlier to clue this.... 'Long to re*** over us. God save The Queen!'

Jacula-I have the "long may she re___ over us" Then the next one I have is the re6/18 meaning to soften. According to Bj's list I am missing two workds between those 2-an re4/7 and and re5/14.

9:03 pm

Jacula

Jojo - When I ran a weight-watching club many years ago (it was at 7pm on a Thursday evening) I could heardly hear myself speak for all the stomachs gurgling because they'd not been given any dinner before coming. In winter, the sound of teeth chattering, because people were in light summer clothes to 'lessen the load' was also a problem. And as for the 'Lost Property Box' - it was full to bursting with wedding rings, earring, hairslides, bracelets, anklets, dentures, glass eyes and any other thing that could be removed from a body. LOL.

Jac: People have to eat and not starve themselves to death, that was not what I was saying, if you contrued that from my chat. All I am saying, is again, diets didn't work for me, HOWEVER, they do work for others, and I am not one to chastise anyone who follows any kind of diet. I just wanted to relay what worked for me, not everyone, just me.

clearly I'm fishizled! Since I have that one, it must be the other re5/14 that I'm lacking. Sorry for the mud brain!

9:13 pm

Jacula

Eva - anagram of 'grean'.

9:13 pm

Jacula

'fishizled'? Nice word! LOL.

9:14 pm

Jacula

JoJo - wasn't chatsising you. Was making a funny memory from my diet club days. We all used to laugh about those nights.

9:15 pm

mrpresident

Jac typed a word!!!

9:15 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Jac: I know that.

9:16 pm

Jacula

I knew that once they'd all gone home and I'd finished tidying up for 10 mins that if I popped into either of the nearby social clubs or chip shops on my way home I would find at least 2 of my class in each! LOL.

9:16 pm

Eva

Done! Jacula, thanks so, so much!!!!!Off to sleep now. See you tomorrow.

9:17 pm

Jacula

'Bye Eva. I hope you feel better later. Hope I do, too!:-/

9:17 pm

Jacula

Oh heck, MrPres - if I've typed a word that'll be the second time since I've been on here tonight.

9:18 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Jac: Yeah, weight is awful to lose. People can put up a facade, like they aren't eating, but, like you said, they could end up in a chip shop, if they starve themselves.

9:18 pm

Jacula

*chatsising*?? I meant chastising.

9:19 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Jac: You worry too much, I knew what you meant.

9:20 pm

mrpresident

.... talking of worry, how is your daughter going Jac?

9:21 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Hi Mr. P.

9:21 pm

mrpresident

Hi JoJo!

9:23 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Mr.P: I suppose you are done with the grid, right?

9:23 pm

mrpresident

...very done!!

9:24 pm

JoJoFunLvg

By the way everyone, anyone want to walk me thru how to put my country flag, and a pic on my name? Just tell me how to get the info off babbs anon. I can do it from there.

9:26 pm

DarleenMB

JoJo you need to pay to become a member ...it's under $10.

9:27 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Darlene: Even to put your flag and an icon about yourself? $10 is fine, but I thought it was free to post that stuff.

9:28 pm

Jacula

MrPres - She's healing slowly but surely. Mind you, she had to have a verruca frozen off her foot today so is in even more pain for now.:-(

9:29 pm

mrpresident

Jac, ouch!! That takes ages to heal too!

9:29 pm

DarleenMB

JoJO if you mean the flag and icon HERE then it's $10. If it's over on Babanon... I didn't realize they had that there. sorry.

9:30 pm

Jacula

Jojo - you can read BabAnon without paying, though it is a members' place. One very generous Babbler paid us all up for a year on there. This site, Babble, is $10 for life membership.

9:33 pm

Jacula

Jojo - you can join and post on BabAnon for free at present. You need a photo-hosting site to put up your own pics from your own pc though.

9:34 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Jac: What is wrong with your daughter? Never heard of a verruca? Sounds like something wrong with her feet. No one has had more problems with their feet than me. Two surgeries, a broken leg at the ankle, etc. etc.

9:36 pm

Jacula

Jojo - a verruca is a wart on the foot. They are impacted and grow inwards rather than outwards. Rather painful and quite tricky to get rid of. Best method is to have them burned off with liquid nitrogen. It hurts like hell, mind!

9:38 pm

billie1987

any clues for the 2nd te 6/18 te 4/4 te 7/28 te 5/10 plz be specific with the clue im not very good with clues

9:41 pm

Jacula

There is only one te6/18 - te+ 2nd re4/4.

9:43 pm

billie1987

i knw ave u got a clues plz 4 te 6/18 ...........

9:43 pm

Jacula

There are 2 te4/4s - 1st is the first part of TV. 2nd is a seabird that sounds like a driving manoeuvre when going round a bend.

9:44 pm

Jacula

te7/28 - add the past tense of 'eat' to the te4 seabird.

9:45 pm

Jacula

te5/10 - add an 'e' to the end of the te4 seabird.

9:45 pm

renfield

hello all you babble darlings....8) just arrived home from the office...

9:46 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Jac: As a kid I was ridden with warts on my hands. Had them burned off. It hurt like heck. But, that was back in the 50's, so hope they have different methods now. But, they did stay away. But, my grew outward not inward like your daughter's.

9:46 pm

Jacula

Good evening, Renfield. You're looking very suave and debonair in your full evening gear tonight.

9:46 pm

musicmom

Hi Ren. Hi everyone!

9:46 pm

GreyWoulf

Hi ren and everyone else -- back to finish -- Seb is currently being fed by Mom and I have only 13 to go :)

9:46 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Hi Ren and Musicmom

9:47 pm

Jacula

Jojo - No, the method's not changed because it's the only one that really works! The warts on the feet grow inward because of the impact of walking on them.

9:47 pm

renfield

hi mistress - i didn't have a black frock to match you so i thought i would just be an accent!

9:47 pm

musicmom

Hey GW.

9:48 pm

renfield

hey mm, wolfie, jojo...i still have some legal docs to read, just wanted to say hi!!!

9:48 pm

billie1987

can u be more specific with the clue for te 4/4 plz

9:49 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Ren: Are you a lawyer or a paralegal?

9:49 pm

JBsAnno

Hi, Babblers!

9:49 pm

saphyre

hi everyone - can I have a clue for my last word...re 6/24 - not the one who leases

Who's got the ups on the themes for February - still in Babbler's Bag?

9:50 pm

JBsAnno

I'm stuck in star sign theme! (Leo, in case you're wondering)

9:50 pm

renfield

jojo - i'm an hr puff-n-stuff bussiness law type person; however, i'd rather be surfing! yes - i went before the bar...

9:51 pm

Jacula

Billie - te4/4 is a seabird. The word sounds like what you might do with a steering wheel to get yourself arounda corner - you'd tu** it. Or, if you got up on stage to tell a joke or sing a song you might be said to be 'doing a tu**.

9:52 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Ren: Think by your icon you must be female. Good for you to go before the bar. Proud of you.

9:53 pm

Jacula

Billie - if you have the re4/4 meaning to lease, it's an anagram of that.

9:53 pm

billie1987

yea i have that one its the other 1

9:53 pm

renfield

yes jojo - i'm a girl..i enjoy being a girl!!!

9:53 pm

GreyWoulf

Jac - Yeah well, I try to maintain theme, but with the new restrictions on my time about to start, I haven't been as strict as in the past ;)

9:53 pm

Jacula

Jojo - of course Ren's a girl! She has a pink 'handbag'. LOL.

9:54 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Ren: I enjoy being a girl too. ~~ most of the time.

9:54 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - you look well-dressed to me!

9:55 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Jac: Sorry. Can't see the pink handbag.

9:55 pm

renfield

wolfie - you always look nice !!! wolves are beautiful!!

9:55 pm

JBsAnno

Um, theme, anyone? Please <puppy eyes>?

9:56 pm

GreyWoulf

Thank you, ladies :)

*bows in direction of both*

9:56 pm

Jacula

Billie - for the other te4/4 - think what TV is short for, or that awful te**gram people used to get during the war that said things like, 'Private Nelson killed in action.Stop. He died with glory. Stop.'

JB -- the easiest way to find Babbler and the theme schedule is to go to the player rankings -- then use your browsers built in search function to search within the page for 'Babbler' -- then you can access her bag from there

I figured that out only recently myself ;D

9:58 pm

Jacula

It's 7th Feb here in UK. 3:57am!

9:59 pm

renfield

thanks for posting that the other evening wolfie..that's what i usually do..i was just 2 tired...8)

9:59 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - Seeing what you said about getting into Babbler's handbag I guess you haven't read back to when her profile address was posted and I forgot about the gaps that get put in web addresses posted on here, and ended up on a 'Playboy' mag site! LOL.

9:59 pm

JBsAnno

thanks, G! & ren
Too muzzy tonight to remember that's what I usually do.
Strained my back yesterday (taking out trash, of all things) and am on muscle relaxants and pain killers.

OUch! JB -- I can empathise with you -- I have a potential herniated disc --- only prob is that I seem to have a tolerance to vicodin :(

10:01 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Hi MAB. Welcome back!

10:01 pm

JBsAnno

mab, fits you to a T! Hello, good to see you.

10:01 pm

Jacula

JBs - None! LOL. If you try to get playbabble with a gap in it you end up with 'playBOY'!:-/

10:01 pm

musicmom

Thanks Mab. I decided to go retro <g> Anyone got a clue for the second ta7/36? I have the stronger astronaut drink.

10:02 pm

GreyWoulf

Jac -- LOL

10:02 pm

JBsAnno

So, for that, NOT reaching your potential is actually a good thing, ri...um, correct, GW?
(whew, almost typed that one!)

10:02 pm

renfield

ow mistress!!!!
mab hey!!!!

10:03 pm

JBsAnno

I did that once, Jac, looking for "kitty" something on Google images.
My eyes, my eyes!

10:03 pm

mab

JoJo: we tend to call the little pink or blue thing by our flags, handbags. They no doubt are little people, but they do look more like handbags, don't you think? If you click on a handbag, you get that person's profile.

10:04 pm

GreyWoulf

JB -- actually it is more due to the fact that I can't afford to go to the doc to have it confirmed -- my copay isn't too bad, but its the deductible fees that get me at this point

10:04 pm

GreyWoulf

Greetings, mab -- how are you this chilly evening?

10:04 pm

JoJoFunLvg

You guys are all beyond me as far how to get my icon up there. But, guess I will try sometime in the next week or so.

10:05 pm

Jacula

Well, I'd rathe have been directed to 'PlayGIRL' magazine! :-)

10:06 pm

Jacula

Jojo - you click on the 'goPro' bit under your name in blue on the r/h side of your screen. Then you pay your $10 and you're in!

10:08 pm

JBsAnno

Yeah, G, those deducts can kill ya - any better on the new job? Or have to wait 3-6 mo's before getting on the insurance?
LOL Jac!!!

10:08 pm

Jacula

*Jac now signs out and signs in under her non-pro partner's name to check that she is right.*

10:09 pm

JBsAnno

Okay, up to date...REFRESH!

10:09 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Thx Jac: Printed off what everyone said as how to get an icon on babble. Will try next week, to try to figure out how to do it. I will figure it out, but it might take some time.

10:09 pm

GreyWoulf

JB -- since the new job is via a temp agency they have their own docs to go to with probs -- but if picked up as a perm position they have a pretty good plan

10:10 pm

Jacula

Okay, JoJo. Got it now. It's a blue box on the right hand side above the grey box where you sign in. It reads '
Upgrade to Babble Pro!
Babble Pro users can:

* Use the Stats panel
* Have buddy icons'

10:11 pm

....and hi to saphyre.

I hate to be a broken record, but doing yoga is like a miracle for aches and pains and things out of alignment, etc. I manage a knee that pops spontaneously out of joint and makes me drop like, like, a small sack of potatoes, with yoga, and arthritis too. I am problem-free if I do a little most days.

10:12 pm

JBsAnno

Woulfie - you're hoping for a perm position, rig...correct?
(I've got to get off this grid, I'm so ready to type a word!)

10:12 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Jac: Thx. Printed it off. Will get it down.

10:12 pm

ge4/6 - A tax paid to the crown by English landholders under Anglo-Saxon and Norman kings.

If you were feeling bad earlier, you might say to somone, 'I fe*T bad earlier.'

10:15 pm

Jacula

ge+ the re4 word for 'lease'.

10:15 pm

GreyWoulf

mab --Glad to hear of your success w/yoga -- Kirsten has been bugging me for a while to try it, but since she doesn't either it tends not to happen -- it is so easy to come up with something else to do (like Babble)

Hey, what's a bippy? I could go for something sweet!
In fact, BRB, have to feed the cats, and take nighttime dose.

10:17 pm

GreyWoulf

G'nite MM -- sleep well (*hug*)

10:17 pm

JBsAnno

Night, musicmom!

10:18 pm

Jacula

I guess bippy is another word for ar4/4 (posterior)?

10:18 pm

GreyWoulf

I have no idea what a bippy is -- it is just something my grandmother used to say :)

10:19 pm

renfield

wasn't that a lugh-in word...you bet your sweet bippy?

10:19 pm

GreyWoulf

I think you are correct, ren -- I have vague memories of that

10:19 pm

Jacula

Well, I think my guess is probably correct, Wolfie.

I think you missed my question to you earlier about how everyone is? How's the new Mum doing? It's a big op she had - not so easy to recover from.

10:20 pm

pbr

OK -- I am aggravated -- I have only 14 words left -- and I am stuck:
re6/24, 7/40, 7/28

10:20 pm

mab

Pop down to the library, GW. Don't do anything that seems too difficult right now in yoga, if you manage to squeeze in some time. Don't push yourself too much -- as one yoga teacher would tell some of the men, 'yoga is not a competitive sport.'

I do hope you become permanent (relatively) in your job - healthcare insurance is like gold.

10:22 pm

Jacula

pbr - you look in a black mood now. At least my eyes are open on my icon! LOL.

re7/40 - what you might have to do to a fire, candle or cigarette if they went out.

10:22 pm

JoJoFunLvg

Mab: Heard that yoga is also good for high blood pressure, like I have. I belong to a health club and a lot of the women are in the ladies locker room humming up the yoga that they learned in classes there. Is that right, high BP people can keep it down by Yoga?

10:22 pm

GreyWoulf

Jac -- yes I missed it --- All are well, though Kristianna is beginning to manifest some minor jealousy behaviors since she keeps being told she can't do things she used to because of her new brother -- but she still loves him to bits
Mom is making good headway on recovery, though anxious to return to pre op behaviours :)

10:23 pm

GreyWoulf

mab -- will do... eventually, I promise! ;D

10:23 pm

Jacula

re7/28 - A person who lives on income from property or investments.

Google that. Failing that, think MORE re4/4 (lease word).

10:24 pm

Jacula

I've put clues for the 2 re6/24's a few pages back.

10:25 pm

ace_landry

10:25 pm

renfield

Bippy - Silly word used on the comedy variety ROWAN & MARTIN'S LAUGH-IN/NBC/ 1968-73. During one episode of the program, the audience got some insight as to what a "Bippy" was:

Dick: May the Good Fairy sprinkle stardust on your bippy.
Dan: Just a minute now. I've been meaning to ask you; what's a bippy?
Dick: It's a baby bip.
Dan: Then what's a bip?
Dick: It's a big bippy.
Dan: Are you sure?
Dick: You bet your sweet bippy, I'm sure!

The "Bippy" word later inspired the title of the Rowan & Martin film The Maltese Bippy (1969). Once Liberace said "I bet my sweet bippy and lost it!"

10:26 pm

Jacula

Wolfie - It's only natural, re Kristianna. Kirsten, too. Tell both to take things one day at a time.

10:26 pm

pbr

Jacula -- I'll check back on the re6/24's -- I have one already. As for the black block -- I don't know how to fix that. I tried loading a picture, but that tied up my computer, and now, I am expressionless!!

10:28 pm

mab

JoJo: I think that yoga is so much focused on the whole body and mind, that it's good for almost anything. In one class we had a wheelchair-bound woman, and she found it very helpful. But do check in with you doc first. I'm pretty sure all of it would be great for you (since you work out and are very active), but especially the breathing excercises, I should think, would be useful.

10:28 pm

ace_landry

meeeeee

10:29 pm

Jacula

PBR - to clear your computer's constipation, try clicking on 'tools' and then 'options' and clearing your browser/s. Do that every day! Also go into 'tools' on your start menu and do a 'disk clean' and a 'defrag'.

It was down to 128/76 this morning, but I know it wouldn't be that if I only took the Dr.'s meds. My Dr. knows I am also taking the herbal meds and she is fine with it. She also suggested Yoga.

Wolfie - you and Kirsten now have 'one of each'. Life will be fun, hell, fun, hell, fun... glad you did it. That's life. Life's for enjoying. Be glad you did it!

care to share that at 7, gw??

10:35 pm

zubie

I can imagine, GW. :)

108? I've not completed a single grid since I got back!

10:35 pm

zubie

ren - we sound alike. :D

10:36 pm

mab

Leslie: think of an artist's loft, or studio, in french.

10:36 pm

Jacula

at7 - past tense of 'eat' + li4/4.

Real definition is a workplace or studio for art or design.

10:36 pm

GreyWoulf

Hi LA -- at7 - "A workshop or studio, especially for an artist or designer." -- I can't really come up with a better clue than the def to Google :)

Woulfie: Enjoy your two kids now, before they are teens. It gets more difficult when they are teens, but good training when they are young makes a big difference.

10:36 pm

LeslieAnn

ooh, thanks folks.

10:37 pm

Jacula

Oh, and, just crowing a bit here before I trip over and fall off - I KNEW THAT AT7

10:38 pm

Jacula

OUCH!

10:39 pm

mab

That's great that your doctor mentioned yoga, JoJo! Do give it a try and see how you like it. I'd be interested to know.

10:42 pm

Jacula

Mab - you're the expert on yoga so you can explain that there are different types. For instance, the type that Madonna does would NOT be suitable for most.

Yay, GW! I'll either be doing the happy dance of doneness with you, or the wobbly dance of medication in 20 minutes!

10:45 pm

zubie

Are there any q words in this? I'm going to need all the help I can get. :) Anyone willing, that is and hugs to you.

10:46 pm

JBsAnno

Hi, zubie!
No words start with Q, but several have the QU in them.

10:46 pm

zubie

Ok, thanks JB. And hi to you too. :)

JoJoFunLvg

10:50 pm

JoJoFunLvg

JB: Bad game on Sunday, I'm from the Seattle area. Bad refs. But Seahawks did the best they could and we are all proud of them.

10:50 pm

zubie

Thanks Jacula. I had the cr but not the rest! (((Jacula)))

Mail, GW? *forgets grid and whizzes off* ;D

10:50 pm

LeslieAnn

10:51 pm

pbr

10:54 pm

JBsAnno

JoJo, did they give the players a parade? They deserved one for sure!

10:54 pm

zubie

Oooh I like the el5/18 - so poetic!

10:55 pm

JBsAnno

*~*~*~*~~*~FIREWORKS*~*~**~*~* ~*~
for pbr!

10:55 pm

Jacula

y/w, Zubie.

pbr - if you're officially 'done', do we need to prod you with a skewer to check your juices are running clear? LOL.

10:55 pm

GreyWoulf

10:55 pm

renfield

10:55 pm

Jacula

el5/18 - a poem or song for a dead person.

10:57 pm

JoJoFunLvg

JB: They had a big thing at Quest Field today for the team. Lots of people attended. I wanted to go, but I had to take my husband to a doctor's appt in Redmond at the Hospital. So couldn't make it. But, my heart was with them, and listened to all the broadcast on the way home.

10:57 pm

JBsAnno

Stay away from me with that prod, Jac, I don't want no el 5/18's sung for me tonight!

10:58 pm

zubie

Thanks GW. :D (((GW)))

10:59 pm

GreyWoulf

YW ((**zubie**))

11:00 pm

JBsAnno

11:00 pm

Jacula

LOL JBs! Congrats!

11:00 pm

JoJoFunLvg

JB: Hopefully next year. Have to sign off. My husband just said 24 was on.

11:01 pm

renfield

11:01 pm

GreyWoulf

ooooh!! Pretty, ren! -- sleep well and good night ((**Hug**))

11:03 pm

pbr

Hey, I think I added a picture -- kewl

11:03 pm

Jacula

'Night Ren.

11:04 pm

Jacula

pbr - you did! It's a seagull soaring high?

11:05 pm

pbr

Jacula -- yeppers -- it's a picture I took last year while vacationing in Florida. I tried doing icons -- that is what messed me up.

11:05 pm

mab

Oh, Jacs, I have no idea what Madonna is up to! I'm almost sure it would annoy me.

I've done Bikram yoga, which is conducted in an extremely hot room; it was fairly good for me, but I wouldn't do it again. Then there is a kind of aerobic, vigorous yoga that seems to defeat an entire aspect of yoga - wouldn't recommend it. Most forms of yoga are strenuous enough without extra heat or speed.

11:06 pm

mab

Night ren!

11:07 pm

pbr

Time for some shuteye -- work comes all too early -- thanks for all the help --be safe

11:14 pm

zubie

Ok. Hints for the te's please? I have just the 4/4

11:14 pm

Jacula

Mab - ashtanga yoga springs to mind, but I'm not sure if that's the standing on your head and breaking your back one -

11:17 pm

JBsAnno

Well, 20 words to go, but the meds won - I'm too muzzy for the r's & t's.
See you tomowwroowww (yup, muzzy like I said!)!
